Although the thread is quite old, I still have one more complication to add:
I am in a company computer trying to map a drive in another country. Mapping works
well as long as I do it by assigning a drive letter and NOT doing it through "My
network places". I believe this happens because the user that I have on the headquarters
has a different password than my local user.
When I map the network drive letter, then "My Network Places" allows me to make a
mapping too. As soon as I cancel or disconnect the network mapping (leaving just
the one in my network places) it stops working again. The difference is that I can
mark "Logon as a different user" on the mapping but not on the Network Places.
Is there any way I can tell network places to ask me for a user and password?
BTW, the reason I don't want to keep the drive map is that it is very very slow.
The link works quite fast on My network places. On mapped drive it is terrible. Slows
down everything on the computer.
Thanks for any help you can get me.
Regards,
Rodrigo
